Dermal Fillers: How It works to Improve Your Appearance?
Hello everyone.
I am Dr. Lipa Gupta and I am back here again to discuss about dermal fillers and solve your FAQs about it. Before we start what dermal fillers are it is important for us to understand what is natural itching? As all of us age this is because of our frequent blinking or because of a repeated lip movement we lose hyaluronic acid which is the natural substance of the skin. This leads to appearance of fine lines around the eyes, tear troughs, nasolabial folds and marionette lines. When these signs start appearing there is an appearance of lines of wrinkles and these days we have products which are very close to the natural occurring Hyaluronic acid in the skin, to replenish the lost volume and improve the fine lines and pores which are developing. Juvederm gives us a complete range of products which is specifically designed to target the individual needs of these areas. We have a whole range of Voluma, volbella, vollift and ultra HC which is specifically design to treat. A volume which is good for lifting and filling effect cheekbones and around the deeper and courser lines of the skin. A volbella which is specifically designed. It’s a soft product to take of the tear trough areas. A volt which is specifically designed to target lips so it gives a natural plumed lips without giving an unnatural appearance and an ultra HC which is again for a filling and lifting effect. The difference to these products is the quantity of Hyaluronic acid which is different in each of them and which is specifically designed to target that particular area. These products are injected using fine needles which have certain key points for each area which are already predetermined. The effect of the result is immediate which can be seen immediately after injecting for up to one to one and a half years easily. The procedure is safe but should be performed by an experienced dermatologist because there are certain complications may which occur if you are not doing it with a proper doctor who specifically train for the same. When these products are inserted using needles there is an immediate lifting and plumping effects which further enhances within a week’s time. Another common question which we commonly face is why Juvederm or any other product as against the cheaper dermal fillers. The quality of the product is dependent on the tissue integrity it achieves. This product when injected, it integrates in the tissue and forma part of the tissue. This integration factor is variable for different quality of products. When you are choosing a product which is superior, though it might be slightly costlier it is to give you natural result, these days we not only aim at lifting or filling lines, we also help in treating expressions. We commonly have patients who walk in telling that suddenly, ‘I have started looking angry or I look worried’.
So when we are treating expressions, we want product as close to natural as possible. This is an advantage of Juvederm over other products.
